ah, bliss!
After being gone for the past 2 months (with 2 days off during those 2 months) my 'significant other' has made it back home. For now. You never really know when the office will call him out again (although historically it's always the next morning after he gets home from the LAST job!).
It's wonderful - having him home, I mean. 'Long distance relationship' is almost a cliche... but that's what we have - except we live together. It's interesting, to say the least.
For now, I'm just going to enjoy the fact that our whole family sits around the same table at supper time.
